WHITESNAKE have officially pulled out of their tour with Judas Priest.

The band have issued the following statement

..."Unfortunately, last night [August 11] at the Red Rocks Amphitheater, Denver, WHITESNAKE had to cut their performance short due to Mr. [David] Coverdale experiencing considerable pain in his vocal cords. He was immediately taken to a specialist for examination. The specialist discovered that David was suffering from severe vocal fold edema and a left vocal fold vascular lesion. He was instructed to cancel all performances for the next two weeks and then undergo a further examination. The doctors told us we were fortunate this was caught at a stage where no apparent permanent damage has been caused. We therefore regretfully have to announce that WHITESNAKE will not be appearing on the remainder of the U.S. tour with JUDAS PRIEST. WHITESNAKE sincerely regrets any disappointment this may cause."

Tony Banks' "A Curious Feeling" To Be Re-released

Esoteric Records are to re-release Tony Banks' 1979 solo debut album on October 19th. The album will be available as a remixed single disc version as well as a deluxe edition with bonus DVD featuring a 5.1 mix of the album.

Esoteric Recordings are proud to announce the release of the album “A Curious Feeling” by GENESIS founder member and keyboard player TONY BANKS on Monday October 19th 2009. This classic album, inspired by the novel “Flowers for Algernon” by Daniel Keyes, was first released in October 1979 by Charisma Records. Recorded at Polar Studios in Stockholm, whilst Genesis were on a brief hiatus following the “And Then There Were Three” tour, this majestic work featured contributions from drummer CHESTER THOMPSON (a member of GENESIS for concert appearances) and vocalist KIM BEACON. Stylistically the album is equal to anything Banks composed for GENESIS and includes the instrumental “The Waters of Lethe” and the song “For a While” (also released as a single) among its highlights. Significantly, this new edition of “A Curious Feeling” has been remixed from the original master tapes by Nick Davis (who also remixed the entire GENESIS catalogue in 2007) and Tony Banks, resulting in a more dynamic sounding album. In addition, a new 5.1 Surround mix has also been prepared which is included on a limited 2 disc deluxe edition of “A Curious Feeling” along with the rare promotional videos of “For a While” and “The Waters of Lethe”. A top thirty hit album upon its release, these editions of “A Curious Feeling” are the definitive statements on the 1979 solo work by TONY BANKS and will be backed with a media campaign of interviews and features.
